Post Broken Virgin Aircraft

Pilot turns back 'broken' "Virgin flight


Angry travellers say technical problems have grounded a Virgin Blue flight from Adelaide to Coolangatta.


Passengers say the plane had taxied onto the runway at 8:30am ACST before the pilot turned it back.
They say the pilot told them the aircraft was 'broken' and they should disembark.
It is estimated that about 100 people were delayed at Adelaide Airport waiting for another flight."

Love the term "broken" allegedly used by the crew!
